Paper + Glue + Glitter

I had been to an art exhibition in a primary school sometime ago
and had taken photos (with my phone) of some of the lovely collages that the kids had made.
I was showing these to Em and Hero last week
and
they wanted to re-create one of the collages.
We studied the photo,
planned out our collage
(I did some of the cutting)
and then I let them paste away happily.

Hero was in charge of the glitter glue.

Em pasted layers of teardrop shapes to make the feathers.

and added pretty pink flowers

to make a peacock in a garden.
On tomorrow's agenda
is a space collage.
Stay tuned! :)
